Molecular phylogeny and dating reveal a terrestrial origin in the early carboniferous for ascaridoid nematodes
Ascaridoids are among the commonest groups of zooparasitic nematodes (roundworms)
and occur in the alimentary canal of all major vertebrate groups, including humans. They …

Apparent competition drives community-wide parasitism rates and changes in host abundance across ecosystem boundaries
Species have strong indirect effects on others, and predicting these effects is a central
challenge in ecology. Prey species sharing an enemy (predator or parasitoid) can be linked …
